The End Of A Love Affair - Stina Nordenstam

The end of a love affair

A scene from a film

Just as familiar

As the love had been

I woke and couldn’t sleep

Before a word was said

The gap was ocean deep

Between us in the bed

The end of a love affair

The end of a life

The end of a love affair

Still we both survive

It didn’t take so long

Really just a day

And all the hope was gone

It was clear I couldn’t say

Getting up is easy

Beaten up, still easy

Cutting off is easy

Tearing down is easy

The end of a love affair

The world is born again

If things doesn’t look the same

It’s cause they constantly change

I take your number off the phone

Now I’m on my own

The good days will come

I just need the time
